Created by Longhornsg (talk). Self-nominated at 15:10, 14 August 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Alix Earle; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Article is new enough and long enough and I didn't detect any close paraphrasing. Both hooks are cited inline and verified in the source. I prefer ALT1; Fox News was recently re-rated to be a yellow source (meaning it's now a case-by-case thing), and while normally I would have been fine with it in this particular case, I find ALT0 to be somewhat promo-y.

That is a shame about ALT0 because it makes me want to click. The trash bag angle is ok I guess: and it checks out. Bruxton (talk) 18:54, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is the current sentence: "Her manager informed her that she had to post a sponsored video on her TikTok. Due to her acne, she initially relented to do, but later concluded that showcasing her acne could help others relate and help themselves. Earle later described the viewer response as positive and supportive.[13]"

The word "relented" is used incorrectly. Should be "refused to do so". Overall, this is just a bad sentence. Instead, I'd say, "Her manager informed her that she had to post a sponsored video on her TikTok. Due to her acne, she initially refused, but later decided that she could use her platform to help others struggling with the same issue. Earle later described the viewer response as positive and supportive.[13] 47.150.145.51 (talk) 23:38, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
